Closed Cities of Russia
The article presents the results of a long-term study of the urban environment of closed administrative-territorial entities of Russia, which have no analogues in other countries in number and diversity. It is shown that the latter is associated with the peculiarities of the formation of the defense potential of the USSR and Russia in the conditions of an unfriendly environment and the need to ensure the security of strategically important infras…
State Policy of Population Retention in Particularly Significant Areas
The phrase “population retention” has entered the vocabulary of politicians and publicists and has come to denote not a ban on moving to a new place of residence, but, first, various methods of encouraging the local population to remain living and working in their region and, second, preferences for those who decide to move to work and live in territories of particular importance to the state. The article provides examples of such territories in …
The “Other Country” and Its Regional Policy
Over the past few years, Russia has again become different. Its confrontation with the “collective West” has reached unprecedented severity, and the sanctions imposed by it have actually stopped Western investments and export–import operations that are very significant for the country. This was partially compensated by the “turn to the East” and efforts to form a self-sufficient (“sovereign”) economy. Federal Russia has been augmented by six fede…
Russian Old Age
The subject field of this article is aging and old age as natural and irreversible processes in the functioning of an ever-increasing part of the population. These processes are physiologically similar all over the world, but socially and in typical everyday situations, they differ significantly depending on the demographic and socioeconomic specifics of states, on the traditions and social consciousness of different peoples, and Russian old age …
Of What, Where, and How People Die in Russia
The article considers death as a social phenomenon. Statistical mortality indicators are given only to characterize its all-Russian, regional, and ethnic scales. The focus is on the social aspects of causes of death with their conditional division into diseases of the flesh, spirit, and society. Among the latter, special attention is paid to the consequences of the instability and inconsistency of the all-Russian situation and crisis of family re…
Systemic Causes and Consequences of Spatially Mediated Depopulation
Depopulation processes in Russia—in almost all of its regions and settlements—are similar to those observed in almost all developed countries, and they additionally intensified in the post-Soviet period during the 30-year transformation of public relations in the country. The general and particular foundations of depopulation—of a mental, social, economic and political nature—are presented in studies by Russian geographers and demographers, socio…
New Otkhodnichestvo and Shift Labor Organization in the Depopulation and Settlement of Territories
Modern Russia is characterized by a frequent discrepancy between the places of employment and residence of the able-bodied population. Combined with new opportunities for its spatial mobility, this has led to the development of intra-Russian and intraregional labor migrations. Among them, a significant place is occupied by commuting (daily departure to the place of work in another locality) and shift labor organization (departure to a place of wo…
The Legal Environment and Regional Activity
The specifics of the current socioeconomic situation and the state and prospects of development of Russian regions and municipalities are largely determined by the legal environment, which forms under the strongest influence of the “federal presence”—centralization of the federal government in a decentralized state. In fact, the legal field of Russian municipal activity is completely federal: the list of jurisdictions and powers is closed, the ty…
The Russian Phenomenon of Megalopolis-Type Cities
Global urban science has established the notion of a megalopolis (a city with a population of over 10 mln people), the characteristics of which, after publication of the classical work by J. Gottman and the results of numerous studies by foreign and domestic scientists, were described in detail, making it possible to isolate megalopolises into a separate group of settlements that play a leading role in global and national socioeconomic systems. I…
Organization of systemic monitoring of the macroregions’ development
In connection with targeted distinguishing of the territories expanding beyond the borders of one or more federal subjects as objects for state regulation, the concept of a macroregion is clarified. The specific features of a macroregion as a holistic object of statistical observation and monitoring are demonstrated using specific examples. Multiple regulatory acts governing the organization of state monitoring are analyzed. A case study of Russi…
Regional reality and regional studies
The paper analyzes the causes and consequences of the growing gap between the crucial issues of Russia’s regional reality and the scope of research thereof. Over the last two decades, these issues have expanded due to population decrease in geopolitically important areas, crisis of the historical settlement pattern (existing settlements and relationships between them), degradation of human resources, poor development of local economies and local …
Effectiveness and efficiency of the activities of regional and municipal governments
Methodological issues regarding the correct assessment of the activity conducted by regional and municipal executive bodies are considered. A conceptual rationale is presented for the potential of such an assessment on the condition of a clearer definition of its object (specific functions and empowerment) and the degree of the real impact on the parameters of territorial situations attainable with the available resources under the conditions of …
Territorial organization of society and territorial structure of a state
The paper shows the wave-like change in the territorial structure of Russia occurred under the influence of governance factors, presents a number of detailed definitions, and formulates the basic methodological requirements to be met in decision-making processes
On the methodology of research and regulation of spatial development processes
This article introduces the definition of methodology of system regionalistics. The conceptual basis of system regionalistics has been substantiated, and the nature, object, and research methods of the discipline have been highlighted. It is argued then that there are no techniques of cognizing the regional realm of the world that would be adequate to its essence. This article examines the causes of actual regional problems and of fundamental con…
